I'd love to know when it's a good time to go. As opposed to hurting so much that going is preferable to anything else, you know?
I gave her everything... jewels, beautiful dresses -- with beautiful girls in them.

Spike's Bitches 47: Someone Dangerous Could Get In
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

not your mom's socks.
Maria, will do. We're trying to sort travel stuff now. I think everyone's doing ok, and is grateful she had a long life and that she got to know her great-grandkids, and they, her.
Cookie decorating sounds awesome. Chicken plucking machines, NSM.

From DH, when I passed on messages: "Thank you all. Brought tears to my eyes."

Sox, sympathy to your DH and peace to his grandma's memory.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
Sox, I'm sorry I've been not here, but when I read Beep Me, I did think lots of warm thoughts, condolences and peace~ma for your DH and family.
bonny, I don't even know what to say about that mix up.
smonster, I like your feathers just the way they are - no plucking necessary. And reallY? Less ruffling would be great too, so I'll see if I can send a soothing breeze your way.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger
All good thoughts to Sox and family.
smonster, awkward day all around.
And now I want cookies.
I finally feel like a real person again. After an extremely long, hot shower, and feeling like a zombie all day and all night long, I got to sleep and I feel like my brain is starting to crank again. Which is good.
I had weird dreams, though. I dreamt I had to go to Venezula with my sister, where we were kidnapped to this old ramshackle hotel in the country, where we were forced to write bad romance novel in English, to be translated into Spanish. There was another woman there, and she was supposed to be helping us, but all she did was add purple prose to the love scenes, and I was very annoyed.
They let us go after we'd finished a short story, and I was trying to figure out whether or not I wanted my name on that horrible piece of shite or not. And then I woke up.

Always Anti-fascist!
I would probably laugh if someone asked me about "getting plucked"

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Condolences, Sox. Having the time to be ready is sort of an awesome thing.
Ick and ew, smonster.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
Condolences, Sox.
Will have ~ma aimed squarely in your & DH's directions, MFNlaw.

Much ~ma to your DH, Sox. Peace and strength to you both in the coming days.
In Nora News, today is a fucking suck day of fucking suck. Tom's mom died today and a hidden pole ripped my front bumper off as I prepared to go tp lunch. Dropped the car off at a local body shop and am eating lunch. And drinking a goddamn beer. I really hope that Tom doesn't need to find out about the car thing. Not today, anyway.
